To keep the whole thing low here, i don't asked to include the info file
in fvwm ... just for interested ppl and *maybe* a playce on cvs (before
putting it on savannah). That was no call for "I will mantain the new
documentation format"... :)

If there is the possibility to get a new documentation source format in
a reasonable time i won't say another thing about that issue (as long as
the format support info :) ) But in any other case i see no harm in
doing a info file easily portable to xml, html, docbook and tex?!
